Eight secondary schools in Cork are among those to be awarded the LGBTQ+ quality mark, in recognition of their efforts in creating a “safe and supportive” school environment for their LGBTQ+ students.

A total of 37 secondary schools from across the country, who each finished an 18-month journey to promote LGBTQ+ inclusion in their classrooms, received the quality mark at an event today.
